It’s being reported that VH-HCE, a Cessna 152 from Basair, has crashed after take-off at Bankstown airport.
Both pilot and passenger are reported to have exited the aircraft safely after it came down.
The Cessna (shown left) was reportedly found upside down in a field adjacent to Nancy Ellis Leebold Drive close to the airport.
The Canterbury Bankstown Express has pictures and a report here.

I flew this aircraft 4 times before the accident… one of them was x-wind assessment. That was around a year ago… it is sad to hear an aircraft you used to fly has crashed.
